Rick: The Dog With A Difference – Clarie Mowat – Autumn Publishing

Meet Rick. While all his doggy friends love to run and chase a stick, Rick just doesn't enjoy the silly game at all. He thinks he must be the only dog in the world who feels this way and wishes he wasn't so different... But when Rick meets a duck who doesn't like swimming, a mouse who is allergic to cheese, and other new friends with differences of their own, he begins to understand that he doesn't have to be the same as all of the other dogs. It's great to be unique!
